Basketball players at the college level are bigger and stronger than their high school counterparts, and they need breakaway competition basketball hoops that will stand up to a higher level of punishment than those designed for younger players. Choosing the right product means that the players will be able to focus on developing their skills and playing the game that they enjoy so much. Honing aggressive play qualities is essential on the college level.
At that level, they don't want to be distracted by equipment that won't stand up over time. The players need to focus on doing their best at every practice and game. There are several models available that would be appropriate for this purpose.
When you need top of the line basketball hoops, an option like the FT 196 is an excellent choice. This model, or others like it, can breakaway from any angle. It has an extremely durable powdercoat finish that will stand up to a high level of punishment. This unit meets the specifications set out by the NCAA and H.S. An anti-whip net is standard with this product, which can be used with any standard backboard. Whether you are hosting practices, games or tournaments on a regular basis, this basketball hoop will last. It even comes backed up by an eight-year warranty.
Some consumers want an adjustable breakaway tension when they are looking for basketball hoops. In that situation, you can consider the FT 194TA. This product is outfitted with a "Tuff-Tie" tubular net hanger design. It can be adjusted to anywhere from 170-230 lbs. If you choose to use it indoors, the lifetime superior warranty is in force. Buy it with confidence and your players will be able to enjoy it for years.
A more economical choice when it comes to basketball hoops for college students is the FT 192A. It is guaranteed for five years and is equipped with a long lasting positive lock mechanism. The FT 192A can be used with all standard backboards and like the other two units mentioned above, meets all H.S. and NCAA specifications.
When you need to be especially budget-conscious when shopping for basketball hoops, you can still get a quality product. The FT 192 has a durable finish and is guaranteed for two years. Durable continuous net-locks are a standard feature on this model. This product can be used for college-level as well as high school players.
Even though all of these basketball hoops are recommended for college-level players, they are also appropriate for use by anyone who wants to outfit their basketball court with a good quality product that will stand up over time. Investing in quality equipment means that it needs to be replaced less often, which actually saves money in the long run. This is a purchase that needs to be thought of as an investment in your players and the basketball program as a whole. College-level players deserve to play with the best quality equipment that you can provide for them.
